Also, moving the map around is speeded up since the big map is now only 10800 x 5400 instead of 21600x10800; because quite simply, my computer couldn't do advanced text editing with the full size, it slowed to a crawl; by reducing the map size by half, it made doing the big map feasible.
Instead of your computer having to juggle a 230 MB map file, it only needs to juggle a 55.6 MB map file; the drawback is slightly increased granularity at closer in zoom levels.
